    How about 1st base???


    This team will be in trouble for the next....
    Umm....

    What the hell happened to your Red Sox???

    I still cant get over the fact that they lost 20 games in September.

    I'd rather not talk about it Speeds. It sucks. I'm still in mourning.

    to be fair the NL Central was like 1-15 in playoff games since the cards won the World Series in 2006.

    Not even close he was watching grand slams fly out of the Citizen's Bandbox Park, a day after Yovanni watched Cameron drop a ball off his glove, and two days before Dave Bush earned the only win by an NL Central Pitcher between 2006-2010 in the playoffs. Dave Bush.

    Well to quote another Boston executive Rick Pitino, it's not like Ernie Banks is walking through that door and neither is Ferguson Jenkins or Hack Wilson.

    Thats just it...

    Mr. Epstein may help get this organization on the right track...

    But lets face it...
    This team is still a half a century away from contending.....hehehehehehehe

  • Zambrano traded...
    Soriano given his release....Yeah just eat the $40 million or so left on that idiots contract.....
    Soto needs to be kicked in the balls....Maybe Epstein can take care of that
    Do we have a right fielder??
    Marmol is a fucking headcase.....Can we still get anything if we trade him???

    This team is a fucking joke....

    well let's start with the rebuild then.

    Soriano and Zambrano for Lackey and Crawford. Crawford can't possibly screw up playing left field with a wall covered in ivy...

    Soto for Saltlamacchia and Marmol for Kyle Farnsworth.

    Those moves are sure-fire playoff moves right...

    don't forget 1st and 3rd baseman....maybe a second baseman too.

    3 stud starting pitchers.....and some good middle relief....no, ND boy doesn't count.

    so by my count....the cubs have a HOF SS and not much else.

    it's gonna take at least 5 years to field a decent team. outside of a poor fielding, swing at everything SS, they have NOTHING on the roster worth a shit.

  • If Mr. Epstein were smart...
    He would just walk away from the Cubs organization...
    It is a no win situation for him...

    It would take 10 years of work to even get this team to contend.
